If you are unfamiliar with how Code Red tournaments work, make sure to brush up on the format before reading on with the rest of this recap. Code Red is a double-elimination tournament featuring eight teams of three players each. Since custom matchmaking is not yet publicly available in Apex Legends, teams matched up against each other in the bracket had to separately load into three public matches each and try to score as many points possible, based on the following format: \u2013 Wins = +8 points \u2013 Kills = +1 point Having won the Winner\u2019s Bracket, King\u2019s Canyon came into the grand final with a huge advantage, as they only had to win one of two matches, while The Big Weiners, who were coming from the Loser\u2019s Bracket, had to win two in a row. The match start off very tight, as dizzy and co. held a slight 28-23 lead after both teams won their respective games in map one. Map two very much followed the same trend, with both teams winning their games again, and King\u2019s Canyon led 56-48 going into the third map of match one.
